BUFFALO FILLED WITH SOLDIERS. Trains Going Out Under Military Protec tion—Extent of the Strike. Burraro, Aug. 19.—The shaking into place of 5,000 soldiers who arrived last night and dur- ing the morning is the most prominent sub- face movement today in the strike field. Gen. Doyle this morning completed the assignment of all the troops and under a clear sky the men are eee to (rol aren indicatéd in the carefully prepared schedule. The strikers the lower yards were watching last night along the Central tracks when the troops were coming in, and all night pickets were on the alert, When the morning trains came from the east they saw in all thirty New York Central cars I with men in uniform and eleven West Shore coaches also filled with blue coats, The impression created upon the strikers alon; the lines at East Buffalo was that dhe railroa companies are making = powerful demonstra- tion. The men do not all pause to discriminate between the railroads and the state and the Presence of the state volunteers is, in a broad way. regarded as. an evidence of the corporate strength of the railroad companies. STANDING AND WAITING. All the crossings and switch house strikers in knote were talking of the situation today, but when outsiders joined them there was im reluctance to talk about the strike. ronze-faced strikers shook their heads only and said nothing. Indeed they have little to say if anything. They bave obeyed orders from official superjors. They have quit work. ‘They are not in the official confidence of the leaders. They do not know the plans which must affect themselves, They can only stand and wait, and men who wait dumbly under orders occupy a sharply differont position from those who plan and lead. To men who wait in ignorance of purposes whose results will touch emselves passing events are magnified i: their importance. The rolling past them, for instance, of forty cars filled with soldiers armed with muskets and pouches of bullets produces a depression amon; the men perhaps that not press wit pe degree upon the | ‘who may have le ns for a counter strike. The one fact tangi- le to the men is that out of the Lehigh and Erie ‘ds trains are occasionally moving away, always with those chilly musket barrels as an accompaniment to cool any possible desire to interfere. They see New York Central trains running eastward with a frequency that the lers say is impossible to the comteny, with- out the aid of the striking men. Meanwhile, what have the strike leaders to cheer them more than the men have? As intimated in these dispatches, there are indications from the strikers’ side that the firemen or the trainmen, or both. may be called out within three days to add numbers and what is regarded to be strength to the striking switchmen. EXTENT OF THE STRIKE TODAY. Burraro, N.Y., Aug. 19.—The Lackawanna, the Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburg and the Western New York and Pennsylvania roads'sre the only ones in full movement here this morn- ing and no one knows how long they willremain in that condition. the calling out of the switchmen on the Nickel Plate the entire Vanderbilt system in Buffalo is now tied up aud the number of strikers is increased by nearly one hundred. The roads involved are now seven, viz: The Erie, Buffalo Creek, Lehigh Valley, New York Central, West Shore, Lake Shore and Nickel Plate. The others may be involved later, al- though as long as they refrain from handling boycotted freight they will not be dragged into the fight unless it seems absolutely necessary, the leaders say. ‘The Michigan Central runs its ger trains into the New York Central station, but its freight goes into the yard at Suspension bridge and it employs no switch- men here. A DUEL To THE DyATa. The railroad officials profess to believe that the strike is nearing ite collapse. The men say the battle is as yet beginning, and that it will include firemen, trainmen, engineers and ¢on- ductors, as necessity may require, until victory is won. The switchmen profess to be able to hold out # month at least. From a union stand- point the present strike differs from that of two years ago, in that it has been regularly called and sanctioned by the grand master. This strike will be a duel to. the death between or- ganized labor and its foes, Secret oe of trainmen, firemen and en- gineers were held Parts of the city. Grand Master Wilkinson attended an impprtant meeting of trainmen at East Buffalo. Humors were rife that both the trainmen and firemen were on the eve of strik- ing, if they have not completed the steps neces- sary to that end. Delegations of firemen from out of town were here to confer with Grand Master Sargent, who was expected to get here last night. "The engineers’ meeting was an ina portant one. Just what was decided upon can- hot be earned but a delegation willgoto Toronto today to confer with Chief Arthur. ‘This step is significant in that it indicates that they have | Labor, some sort of a grievance. One of the leaders of the switchmen talking of the situation said: “All hands will go out if necesssry—firemen, trainmen, engineers and conductors—but there is no need to call them all out at once. It ia being done as the necessity arises.”” ‘The twenty-second regiment arrived at 4 o'clock this morning and was posted on the Tifft farm at the junction of the alo railroad, which Gen. Doyle has designated camp No. 2, one of the most im- nt of the fifteen camps or posts which have n established. ‘MR, WEBB'S CHEERFUL REPORT. Vice President Webb of the New York Cen- tral was seen this morning by # correspondent. He stated that the situation on his road was almost normal. As far as the Central was concerned, Mr. Webb asserted positively, the strike was at an end. full day force was at work A . yesterday and was at work today and freight ‘was being handled at every station of the com- Pany in Buffalo. Tonight hight force wi first i There were between 100 and 200 care of freight now in the yards, which would be sent out in the course of the day. only trouble experienced by was the fact that the Lake Shore road was not receiving east bound freight. ‘The Lake Shore, he admitted, wae stil short of men, bat, Mr. el it would handling freight as usual this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

STRIKE LEADERS MOVING CAUTIOUSLY. Unquestionably Master Workman Sweeney is moving with all his power of persuasion upon the allied occupations in service with switch- men. It is believed by the strikers nearest to official sources that at least the switchmen at all other points on the affected roads will be ordered out before the battle is given up by the leaders. indeed, certain of the men now out here firmly believed that the Lehigh and Erie yarde in Jer- | sey City would have been tied up at midnight last night, Possibly thts movement was checked ending the action of the firemen and of the | rainmen. A committee of members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers has eto Toronto to consult with | hiet Engineer P. Arthnr and | secure his ultimatim. Thik fact and some | others indicate that the switchmen’s leader is moving now with careful deliberation. Another | indication of deliberation is that the leaders have undoubtedly determined that if the | firemen and trainmen are called out the firemen should come out first. The reason is | that, the "stopping of | he firemen would as jectively tie np — pas- wenger traine as though the train- men were called out and less men by at least one-fourth would be deprived of worl Division No. 15 of the Brotherhood of E neers has been in secret session to discuss the status of affairs. The meeting was very largely | attended and its seasion was protracted. The members were interviewed upon leaving the hall, but nothing could be learned concern- ing their doings. It seems, however, that they are considering the advisability of co-operating with the other railroad organizations in bringing the strike toasucceseful culmination. Animport- ant meeting of firemen will be held tonight late: On the other hand the railroad officials scout the strikers’ expectation of aid from the train- men or firemen, IF IT TAKES ALL SUMMER. The temper of the railroad heads is statéd in “Iknow that the employes are determined, but the companies are ly 80. If the strikers gain their point there no telling where the thing will stop. Next is the world’s fair season, and if the strikers win their point ther would have the railroads by the hip and would not hesitate to ask for | anything. Now is the time to stop this thing, and it might aswell be fought out if it does take all eummer.”” TELEGRAPHERS MAY JOIN THE STRIKE. Another consideration is projected into the situation this morning. The Order of Railway Telegraphers are in close accord with the other organizations. The order has a membership of 100 men in this city, comprising thrve-fourths | of the operators employed on the several rail- road lines. The order became a striking organization two years ago, and bas been successful in several strikes that have occurred on western roada, A locomotive engineer said this morn- ing: “The operators are with us, and should a neral tie-up be ordered they will be with na. You can eadily see that this would tend to add to the confusion among the railroad officials, as they would be greatly hampered in communicating with points al the line as well as with the Western Union and postal operators are not federated with the railroad men and would be under no obhgations to decline to take their places.” ANXIETY AT ALBANY. ia Fears That the Strike Will Develop Next in That City. Aupasy, N.Y., Aug. 19.—The early morning shows no practical change in the situation here | at general hendquarters and both Gen. Porter | and Gor. Flower are resting after yesterday's | hard work. Fully 7,500 men have been massed at Buffalo within the past twenty-four hours, ‘There is no indication this morning that extra troope will be sent for, or, at present, will be ordered to the front, | ‘The total number of men ordered out is 7,883, ‘The adjutant general thinks nearly 7,000 of the men ore in Buffalo; 5,563 are held in readiness to goat any time. jumors of a strike in the big switching yard of the Central here are again rife this morn- ing. A person who claimed to in & position to know said this morning that the men along the line were wait- ing for the time to strike. They had already received orders that with the first freight that came through to throw down their tools and quit work. ‘It is true,” he said, “that not many of them belong to the knights. but most of them belong to the Federation of jor, which received instructions two days ago. Tf this be true much more trouble than was anticipated will result. It was said last night that the old men engaged in the strike of two years ago, now living about west Albany, have been offered positions at Buffalo. It is farther said thet not « man has ac- cepted the offer. A trainman, one of the oldest and most skillful at the time of the strike, was offered a permanent ition by Mr. Harrington and quite « wum of money if he would go into the yard at Buffalo and straighten matters out. It was also said that when a ‘‘caller” called upon one of the old strikers on Monday night when making his rounds he was knocked down. THINK THE STRIKE ENDED. ‘The New York Central Officers Say the Trouble is Over. New Yorx, Aug. 19.—Superintendent Jack- son of the railway mail service said today that the railway mails were somewhat delayed be- cause of the strike at Buffalo. The trans continental train bringing the China due here st 10:35 a.m., was two hours late at Utica this ‘morning. First Vice President Clark of the New York Central eg ay at t ng four hours and that things were getting into 00d shape, Mr. Webb, the third vice president, bas tele- him that the was ing half as many more were ith the protection now afforded by the militis Mr. Clark said there will be no. trouble in canning trains as usual. No trouble is expected at the eastern terminus of the road. PREPARING FOR A LONG FIGHT. ‘The. Switchmen’s Union Disposing of Its Forces for a Struggle. Cuicago, Aug. 19.—Grand Secretary Simsrot of the Switchmen's Union last night received Sweeney: ‘Men to fill strikers’ places are scarce. ‘The tie-up is solid.” “As long as the situation in Buffalo remains in its present shape,” added & i lil Het 4 ! i i i ization indicates that arrangements are being made foralong and determined fight if it be- comes necessary.

The fact seems to be that the Cleveland le are undertaking to ran their campaign without tbe active aid of the other wing of the party, thus far at least. Dickinson is still absent on account of illness, and it is whispered that his condition is such as to cause some anxiety as to ability to take hold of the work again soon. Congressman Cable says he will have the Chi- cago headquarters open and business running next wed. The democratic committes is receiving many earnest ' appeals from southern te for nid in states which were formerly democratic. On the other hand they express great confidence of success in certain western states. Republicans are #till silent as to whether they will or will not establish western headquarters at Chicago. The best advire seems to be against it, but it is not improbable the action by democrats may lead republicans to a similar course. > THE VIRGINIA ‘Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
